ditto ^^^^^^^

I've been doing this also... I just hate the fact that I know my music has it's own tags and I still have to get their artwork whenever I flash a new rom. Just being picky, that's all. Thought maybe there was a fix out there.

Friend Stream painfully slow?

Haven't seen much written about this, so thought I'd throw it out there - for those using Sense, is your Friend Stream painfully slow when it comes to loading comments, posting comments, loading people's pages, etc? I love it for the widget and how easy it is to see twitter/FB posts on the home screen, but as for actually using it interactively (pretty much anything beyond just reading posts), it takes FOREVER and drives me crazy.
I'm still running stock, so maybe it runs better on rooted Friend Stream? Idk, I'm just perplexed by why it's so slow since most everything else is blazing fast. Every time I try to comment on a post through Friend Stream it makes me want to just use the FB app or the mobile site. Anyone else?
I use LauncherPro Plus and the "Friends" Widget, which works great.
Occasionally, if there is any issue with it not refreshing (which is not very often, but does happen) I just "restart" launcher pro and then trash and replace the widget. Always fixes it.
Maybe if your using Sense just trash the widget, force stop Sense, re-add widget?

Thanks for the reply, but the problem isn't that the widget doesn't refresh, it's that when I click on a post and then it takes me to the friend stream app, the APP is really slow. Takes like a minute or two for things to process. The widget has been updating regularly.
I'm on rooted stock rom and I feel your pain. Friendstream is horribly slow when you want to do anything other than read posts in the widget. I always end up using the FB app. Sucks, but I like the FS widget.

You just described exactly where I am with the whole thing. Love the widget, but have to use the FB app for interactive stuff. It's not a data thing b/c the dedicated FB app always refreshes and loads like *that* - but the friend stream app doing anything is...like...*thaaaaaaaattttt* (i.e. really slow). In a perfect world the widget and app would be one and the same, but oh well.
I'm having the same problem with mine friend stream app. The widget is fine but the app itself is dreadful!
Lol well at least it's nice to know that I'm not the only one. I guess that's why I started the thread, to make sure I didn't have a bad apple...well that and the hope that maybe someone would have a 'fix.' Oh well, I guess we just really have to treat is as ONLY a widget.
Does anyone have issues with Facebook no longer being an option to sync on the mytouch.
I have a black mytouch and I only have the option to sync Flickr and Twitter to my friendstream and I know for a fact that you could have Facebook because it worked on my white mytouch

You should definitely be able to stream FB through Friendstream. I only use it for FB and Twitter. Not sure why it wouldn't recognize it.
Yeah I factory reset and everything and still no go.

[APP] Google Music 4.0 ICS

I don't know if its OK to post this or not if not please delete the thread.
Anyways for those that haven't seen it this is the supposed leaked new Google music 4.0 app for ICS.
I take no credit for this app. I did not make it or modify it in anyway. Although I do intend to theme it soon.
Push to system/app with a file explorer of your choice.

Worked great for me!
No need to push it. Just straight adb install worked for me. I'd assume then that you can just install the apk since its pretty much the same thing.
Either way thanks. It looks pretty nice.

Yeah I assumed you can regular instal but didn't try it. I just usually copy paste my off market apps.
There is a leaked version of goggle+ 2.0 I can post too if y'all want it. I don't use it but if you want it and can't find let me know.

You can check out my video on this application for a preview of what you'll get when you install it.

Thanks for posting the tour, what theme are you using in that video?
So what this does is it allows you to listen to the music that is on your computer via Wifi or your phone's data?
And what happens when you click on a song and make it available offline? Does it download it and save it to your phone's memory?
Can you post the Google+ apk

It's a music player. It replaces the stock, boring Android music player with something decent.
And I believe the "Available Offline Option" is to save songs from Google Music Beta to your phone so you can listen to them when you're not on WiFi, or if you don't have a data connection.
Is there a way to change storage for this player? I use internal SD for my system, and after I installed this player, it uses my internal storage to save all of the songs for the offline mode.

Really digging the new UI on this. Gingerbread was when Android started to catch up with iOS on looks, and this is even better.

This player sucks doesn't give option to make/use mp3 as ringtone like stock or MIUI player
I like this app a lot. It installed perfectly fine alongside the CM7 music player.
Screenshots?
Can someone post screenshots of this player just to see how different it is from the stock player
On miui it installs fine but doesn't synch music for some reason. Any ideas?

Keeping Music App "Ongoing"

Hi all, anyone know of a way to maintain the Play Music app as an ongoing app? If for whatever reason the app closes, you must relaunch the app to regain the quick play features in the notification pulldown.
Coming from an iPhone, this is one feature I would love to get back.
Thanks

Not really sure how to make it ongoing, but you can put the Play Music widget on one your homescreens to quickly start it from where you left off if it closes.

Try installing a music player that has a widget such as mxplayer so you can just resume the music from the home screen.

Actually I found an halfway working solution. Using Notification Toggle, I set up a shortcut to play/pause music. Unfortunately is starts/stop the last music app used so it defaults to the stock app. Have to start Play Music first in order for it to work properly. At least it works anywhere

I dont understand how HTC doesnt see an issue w/ this. I used mog and pandora and it stops multiple times during my work out. Its really annoying to have to stop, launch the app, and then hope it continues when i lock my phone again.

Wanted: Global Music Controls in Notification

I have been searching the Google/XDA world for an app or mod that would allow me to control the music play at the moment. That's my favorite hing about iOS. In the lock screen you can control Pandora, MOG, or iPod.
The notification bar is accessible from within almost any app so it would be ideal to have global controls there. If there is anything like this please feel free to chime in.

I'm also looking for the same thing. I have a jailbroken app on iOS called JukeBox that let's me have a music widget and it controls any app playing music and shows artwork pretty cool.
Google Music?
Cm9 lets you add music controls to the notification panel.

Stock 4.0.4 also lets you pause/play and skip Google Play Music from the notification panel.. so, I'm not sure what more the OP is really wanting, unless you want a miniature version of Play Music to show up or something like that. The dev of the respective app (Pandora, etc) would have to support controls for their app from within the notification panel.
Miui Music and Playerpro both have notification music control too.
I use Pandora a lot and Mog. Google Play music is nice but I prefer MOG. I just wanted to know if there android could possible do what iOS does.
Sure I could go back to my iPhone but I enjoy Android. I was just curious if the option existed anywhere.
Cm9 does allow me to add those widgets, thanks foe the reminder. I will try that out...any suggestions for my first cm9 flash?

Another option is to use the MIUI rom; its idea is the same as iOS, any music app can be controlled from lockscreen controls..

Go back to your iPhone. That's the best thing you can do!

Most custom roms have this built in now. Google.music has it and so does poweramp. Try em out!

I think I know what you are referring to. I too came from IOS and that is what I liked most. No matter what music player I was using I could control the music (pause, next, previous) from the lock screen. The default lock screen does not offer this, most custom lock screens do not either. However the AOSP lockscreen will, and so does MiLocker (provided the theme has music control built in). MiLocker should work with any ROM, the AOSP lockscreen may or may not depending on your ROM. If you need help let me know. :good:
Also many music players do have controls in the notification pull down. Grooveshark is the only music app that I use that does not give me controls in the notification pulldown. Hope this helps.

[Q] Specific Music App

So I was going through my phones music making a playlist and I saw that a bunch of my "obtained" songs had missing artwork, mislabeled and other things wrong with them. I was wondering if anyone knew of an app that fixed these problems on the fly. As in, downloaded missing artwork and fixed the names.
Also a great suggestion for an app would be to have the app listen to the song like sound hound or something similar and then auto grab the information and fix it for you. Maybe an app like this is out there and I just can not for the life of me find it or the name of it.
If someone can point me in the right direction that would be great!

Do you happen to have one like this that will auto get the I'd and edit it because this app won't open on my Nexus 5. It opens and closes right away.
